The package also includes Cubase LE for Mac and Windows, as well as Cubasis LE for iOS.

“Tascam created the Portastudio multitrack experience, and we’ve continued to perfect it,” comments Tascam’s Jim Mack. “Today’s artist has a wealth of different musical resources at their fingertips, and the iXR is the first interface of its kind that ties them all together.”

The TASCAM iXR will be available at suggested retail price of $259.99 (approx. £190). For more information, visit: tascam.eu
